Episode 4 — Bonus Episode: Lincoln's Global Influence with Richard Carwardine

He shaped a nation. But his reach went far further than that.

Welcome back to From Their Story To Yours — and to a very special bonus episode. Elaine sits down once again with the brilliant Richard Carwardine to explore a side of Abraham Lincoln that doesn't get nearly enough attention: his global influence and what the world made of the man, the myth, and the leader.

How did a self-taught lawyer from rural Illinois become a symbol of hope, freedom, and leadership across the entire world? What did ordinary people in Britain, Europe, and beyond see in Lincoln that made him mean so much to so many? And what does that tell us about the kind of leadership that truly transcends borders, generations, and time?

Richard has dedicated years of scholarship to exactly these questions — and this conversation is as fascinating as it gets.

Season 1: Self Leadership continues — and it turns out, understanding how Lincoln was seen by the world tells us just as much about leading ourselves as anything else.
